I usually use tee nuts and countersink the heads of the screws below the table surface by drilling about 5mm with a 1/2" forstner bit and then the...
You could just go to Home Depot and get a piece of 1x1" or 1.5x1.5" aluminum angle and just use that. Save having to ship v-slot... MG
Serge: I didn't realize you were a fellow Canuck!.... I could have sold you the stepper drivers, I usually have them in stock. Visit my website...
Sure, Gray, here you are: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] These are all the photos I have, so I stuck in a...
Just cost. I was trying to keep the costs in line with the original machine. My own personal machine has linear rails on it. Also, it's a lot...
You are right, of course, Gary, we kind of got a bit off topic. MG
No, I meant the Improved CBM, not the Sphinx. I have no experience with the Sphinx design, although Kyo seems to have done a great job... Seems...
Perhaps it does. But, why pay for drivers if you are not going to use them... MG
Don't know what you mean by "plate maker"... If you mean the original C-Beam Machine, then yes, its WAY better. Much simpler to build, MUCH...
I get pretty good pricing from Sainsmart, as I usually order them a dozen at a time to get wholesale pricing and get free express shipping (DHL)...
No, sorry, no video. I have done a limited amount of aluminum milling and it seems good. Aluminum milling is a bit of a black art, but lots of...

You could raise your X axis beam up another 20mm by putting cast corner brackets on top of the C-beams at each end instead of the flat 5 hole...
As much as you want. Just move the Z axisup for more clearance. You can adjust it right up to the bottom of the gantry plate. I also used the...
Nice job! Although you could have made your table a lot bigger to take advantage of the extra travel. You can always do that later. Or, go with...
Your calibration is off. You need to calibrate each machine individually, you can't just plug in the theoretical steps/mm value and expect it to...
How do you do that? I've never seen names on things other than if it is a component. I rarely make things components, just groups. Also, how do...
Time to buy a new computer...:) MG
Terry, what exactly did you do to this file anyway? I can't really see any difference... Other than the file went from 6.4MB to 22MB. MG
